Beginner here is an example of a nested list:
<UL>
<LI> A Few New England states:
<UL>
<LI> Vermont
<LI> New Hampshire
<LI> Maine
</UL>
<LI> two Midwestern states:
<UL>
<LI> Michigan
<LI> Indiana
</UL>
</UL>
The display of this nested list:
A few New England states:
Vermont
New Hampshire
Maine
Two Midwestern states:
Michigan
Indiana
Pre-queued Format text preformatted
Use the <PRE> tag ("preformatted") to produce a fixed-width font. The tag also makes a space, a new row, and a TAB key tabs valid (multiple spaces appear as multiple spaces, and wrapping in the source file also produces a newline in the browser). This is useful for the list of programs and some other situations. For example, the following line:
<PRE>
#!/bin/csh
Cd
CFS get MYSRC.F:MYCFSDIR/MYSRC.F
CFS get Myinfile:mycfsdir/myinfile
Fc-02-o Mya.out MYSRC.F
Mya.out
CFS Save Myoutfile:mycfsdir/myoutfile
RM *
</PRE>
Display as:
#!/bin/csh
Cd
CFS get MYSRC.F:MYCFSDIR/MYSRC.F
CFS get Myinfile:mycfsdir/myinfile
Fc-02-o Mya.out MYSRC.F
Mya.out
CFS Save Myoutfile:mycfsdir/myoutfile
RM *
The <PRE> tag can have a width attribute width that indicates the maximum number of characters allowed in a row. WIDTH also notifies the browser to select a suitable font and indent the text.
In the role of <PRE> can also be added to the super chain. However, other HTML tags should be avoided in the <PRE> range.
Note that because,, and & have special meanings in HTML files, you must use their escape sequences (respectively,,, and &) when you enter these characters. See the escape sequence for more information.
Large range of references extended quotations
Use the <BLOCKQUOTE> tag to display a large segment of a reference on the screen with a separate block. Most browsers typically change the page boundaries of a reference section to separate from the surrounding text area.
In the following example:
<BLOCKQUOTE>
<p>omit needless words.</p>
<p>vigorous writing is concise. A sentence should contain no
Unnecessary words, a paragraph no unnecessary sentences, for the
Same reason that a drawing should have no unnecessary lines and a
Machine No unnecessary parts.</p>
--william Strunk, Jr., 1918
</BLOCKQUOTE>
Display results as:
Omit needless words.
Vigorous writing is concise. A sentence should contain no unnecessary words, a paragraph no unnecessary sentences, for the same reason that a drawing s Hould have no unnecessary lines and a machine no unnecessary parts.
